Both Saints Were Victorious in Winlott Third Round Of Matches

ROSEAU, DOMINICA – Tuesday’s third-round action in the 2026 WINLOTT / Windward Islands Under-19 Cricket Tournament produced a dramatic double for the region’s “saints,” as Saint Lucia and St. Vincent and the Grenadines both registered emphatic victories to shake up the standings.

At Benjamin Park, Saint Lucia stunned the host and defending champions Dominica by 89 runs, a result that vaulted the visitors to the summit on net run-rate. Captain Johnathan Daniel anchored the innings with a composed 52, while Roystan Fannis (25) and Tyler Venner (20) provided valuable support to push Saint Lucia to 162 all out in 42.1 overs. Extras contributed a generous 23. Dominica’s reply never gained traction: Neil Poyette’s incisive new-ball burst yielded 4 for 11, Cody Fontenelle and Venner each chipped in with two wickets, and the home side folded for 73 in 22.5 overs. Nian Davis top-scored for Dominica with 21.

Across the island at Geneva Playing Field, St. Vincent and the Grenadines halted a two-game slide by dismantling Grenada by 62 runs. Electing to bat first, the Vincentians rode Kevin Joseph’s enterprising 45 to reach 169 in 35.2 overs despite Jayvonn Henry’s five-wicket haul for Grenada. In pursuit, the Grenadians were skittled for 107, with Kazado Henry spinning his way to career-best figures of 6 for 28 and De Andre Dougan adding 2 for 19. Jayvonn Henry again offered resistance with 28, but the required run-rate spiralled out of reach.

The results set up a tantalising fourth-round schedule on Wednesday, 15 April: league-leaders Saint Lucia meet St. Vincent and the Grenadines at Geneva Playing Field, while Dominica and Grenada square off at Benjamin Park with both sides desperate to revive their campaigns.
